Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
We are rewarded with sophisticated direction from one of the greatest (if not the greatest) living British filmmakers. Dark River is a tense two-hander that builds tension to the breaking point.

Rating: 3/5 --
Barnard once again evokes a grubby, gothic landscape that'll get right under your fingernails. It'll stay there for weeks.

Rating: 1.5/4 --
The kind of movie that mistakes rumbling storm clouds and restless sheep for plot development.

Wilson does some heavy psychological lifting on top of some grimy sheep shearing; it's a labor-intensive performance that yields a real harvest by the film's close.

Vague Visages
Even in the swelling canon of British rural miserabilism, this unrelentingly intense psychodrama burrows beneath the skin.

"Dark River" is a forgettable title for a movie that's anything but.

With strong performances throughout, Dark River is only let down by it's ending, which rounds off an otherwise achingly beautiful film.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Following the death of her father, Alice (Ruth Wilson) returns home to Yorkshire for the first time in fifteen years to claim the tenancy of the family farm she believes is rightfully hers. Once there she encounters her older brother Joe (Mark Stanley), a man she barely recognizes, worn down by years of struggling to keep the farm going while caring for their sick father. Joe is thrown by Alice's sudden arrival, angered by her claim and finds her presence increasingly impossible to deal with. Battling to regain control in a fraught and fragile situation, Alice must confront traumatic memories and family betrayals to find a way to restore the farm and salvage the bond with her brother before both are irrevocably lost.
